john has another interview tomorrow, so i'm crossing my fingers. the boys still haven't heard if they got the apartment yet, but i really hope they did.

i don't post in here nearly enough [17 Dec 2007|08:54pm]
My free time is minimal, especially with it being holiday season.  And the majority of the time I'm just sick of being in front of a computer once I get home from work. In short, the updates are as follows...

  • things with the Boy are going wonderfully...every once and awhile, I catch myself going into panic mode, but  that has nothing to do with him & is more about my own deal
  • money is tight, which is typical for the holiday season
  • I lost my last grandparent the week before Thanksgiving
  • my godmother lost her mom 2 weeks later
  • the Greater Boston area is filled with snow & we are running out of places to store it
  • my holiday vacation is only going to be 5 days long
  • in general, I'm happy

it was a great weekend, except for a tad of sunburn.

i bought a lucky dress for $10.

saturday morning yoga was lead by margie, who cracks me up. it was a good class.


here's the question of the day
...if you were on jeopardy, what would your blurb be when alex came to introduce the contestants? i'm still thinking of mine.

unblocked! [01 Jun 2007|08:10am]
[ mood | contemplative ]

they have turned off the blocking software here at work. i'm not sure how long it will last, but i'm back for now.


work has been insanely busy.

i'm liking that it's summer though. driving home with the sun still up is great. my parents opened their lake house last weekend & i drove up to help. it's looking so great up there. and i got to meet my cousin's 8-month-old baby girl. so adorable. i'm hoping for lots of warm, sunny days for BBQing and what-not all summer long.

nothing new in my love life...not surprising.

saw bright eyes again last week...that was excellent.

i think i might spend tomorrow walking around Harvard Square...that is, if it doesn't rain all weekend long.


some days i feel totally content with my life. other days i feel like i'm stuck in a horrible place with no escape. strange, no?

i went MIA because LJ is now bocked at work. [08 May 2007|09:38pm]
I'll try to post more often, but I can't promise anything.

"Folks, let me sum it up for you. I think religion is bad and drugs are good. I think America causes cancer, longevity is less important than fun, and young people should be discouraged from voting. I think stereotypes are true, abstinence is a perversion, Bush's lies are worse than Clinton's, and there is nothing sexy about being old or pregnant. I think September 11th changed nothing, and if I had known the onset of war would add 100 points to George Bush's IQ, I would have started one. I think pornography stops rape, I think AIDS ribbons are stupid and flag burning makes me feel patriotic. I think death is not the worst thing that can happen to you, I think people have too much self-esteem, and being drunk is funny. I think children are not innocent, God doesn't write books, and Jesus wasn't a Republican. I am for mad cow disease and against suing tobacco companies. I think girls hate each other, 'No' doesn't always mean 'No,' you have to lie to stay married, women's sports are boring, and the Olympics are gay. We'll be on for another six weeks here on ABC." -- Bill Maher

I don't agree with all of it, but I like the quote anyway. Sorry Bill, I'm gonna vote.

birthday, round 2 [26 Mar 2007|09:26am]
In the Hebrew calendar, I was born on the 7th of Nissan. This year, that day falls on March 26th of the Gregorian calendar. So happy birthday to me...again.

I want a lover I don't have to love
I want a boy who's so drunk he doesn't talk
Where's the kid with the chemicals?
I've got a hunger and I can't seem to get full
I need a meaning I can memorize
The kind I have always seems to slip my mind

time for something substantial [13 Mar 2007|10:23am]
[ mood | thoughtful ]

last night i saw Dave Chapelle's episode of Inside the Actors Studio for the second time. i remember liking the stuff he said the first time i saw it, and (not surprisingly) i liked it the second time i saw it too. thoughts like...

"you can't let the world define who you are."

AND

"this could be the greatest country in history, but we need to start with an open dialogue"

he went on to talk about how even people who aren't racist benefit from racism, and therein lies the problem. and it's true. you can't look at a person and not see race. you can't look at a person and not see gender. but we can have an honest discussion about the things that we do see, and the judgements that we make - whether consciously or not.


on a different note...there are a few other exciting things in my life. jamie, spencer & i signed a lease at a new place around the corner. a full house for just the 3 of us, with laundry and a gas stove and a driveway. i'm thrilled.

and while none of you probably care about this...but i had a really great yoga practice this morning.

because no matter what i think i need
i know i can't possibly have a need in this world



recently, my days have been dragging. not because i've been thinking about Tony, or because I've been all inside my head. i have been both of those things, but the days drag even when i'm completely focused on work. i know that i'm always saying this, but i need something exciting in my life.

Jamie and i are looking for a new apartment...which would be money. our landlord creeps me out, we can afford somewhere nicer AND i can't think of anything more pimp than having laundry in our unit. and then we could have a house-warming party too. of course, this is all contingent on finding people to sublet our place.

i'm going to the Bright Eyes show tonight with Jamie...should be a good time.
